Manchester City are set to hijack Arsenal's bid for Declan Rice with a sensational £100million swoop for the West Ham star.
Arsenal have had two bids of £80m and £90m for Rice rejected, which has opened the door for City to gazump them with a British record-equalling bid for the midfielder. City beat the Gunners to the Premier League title last season and the Treble winners could leave them reeling again with their audacious bid for England star Rice.
Arsenal were convinced they had a free run at Rice, despite having initial bids turned down, but City's decision to move for him could see them lose out on their top transfer target.
